Quantum phase transitions and topological phases constitute a vibrant domain within condensed matter physics. Unlike classical transitions driven by thermal fluctuations, quantum phase transitions ...

Quantum Markov chains (QMCs) represent a natural quantum extension of classical Markov processes, encapsulating memoryless dynamics within quantum systems. They offer a powerful framework to model non ...

Physicists have achieved a breakthrough by using a 58-qubit quantum computer to create and observe a long-theorized but never-before-seen quantum phase of matter: a Floquet topologically ordered state ...

After decades of looking, researchers have seen a string of atoms go through a 1D phase change so elusive that it could only happen inside a quantum simulator. “One motivation [for our experiment] is ...

A stable "exceptional fermionic superfluid," a new quantum phase that intrinsically hosts singularities known as exceptional points, has been discovered by researchers at the Institute of Science ...

Physicists have taken a step that sounds like science fiction: they have coaxed light into behaving as a “supersolid,” a ...

Quantum annealer D-Wave’s Advantage2 was one of the processors used to simulate quantum magnetic phase transitions. (Courtesy: D-Wave Systems) D-Wave Systems has used quantum annealing to do ...
